Challenge
Four land rigs had finished contracts and needed preservation before everything was packed up and shipped back to the home base.

Application

Cortec® products were established with a solid track record of delivering effective component preservation. All products were airfreighted direct to the client’s site within days of ordering due to Cortec’s strategic hub in Jebel Ali, Dubai, being able to support the client on short notice. The client used its own drill team to stack the rig.

VmCI 307® was used for the internal protection of all major equipment. M-640 L was used for cooling system preservation. VpCI®-309 was mixed with water and flushed through mud tanks. VpCI®-609 protected piping systems consisting of ferrous metals. Various exposed external metal surfaces on the rig were coated with VpCI®-368, and VpCI®-369 was applied to rotating equipment. Electronics and electricals were preserved by placing VpCI®-111 emitters inside the cabinets and wrapping the outsides with Cor-Pak® VpCI® Stretch Film.

Conclusion
Immediate availability of trusted products and solutions ensured the client was satisfied with the solution provided.
